Indigenous People Day event in Pensacola

PENSACOLA, Fla.—Latino Media Gulf Coast (La Costa Latina Newspaper) has been awarded a grant by Visit Pensacola to produce an Indigenous People Day event.

La Costa Latina Newspaper is planning an event to celebrate indigenous people from around the globe. The community members who descend or represent indigenous people and cultures are asked to participate.

“The idea is to recognize our heritage as first people of different lands,” said Grace Resendez McCaffery, president of Latino Media Gulf Coast, Inc.

The Indigenous People Day event is scheduled for Sunday, October 7 in Pensacola. Details will be announced in the next edition of La Costa Latina and in the publication’s Facebook page. Search “latinomedia” to follow.
